The impact of the Canon 5D firmware update: IS lenses are even better than ever!

While I demonstrated in a previous post the advantage of IS lenses compared to non-IS lenses, the new aperture control is going to make these babies even shinier. How comes? As you know, the further an object is from the camera, the more it is subject to camera shake since the total travelled distance on the sensor of a far object is bigger than the one of a close by object given the same ‘shake angle’.

Now here is the sweet part: since we will be able to use large aperture it will give us a shallower depth of field which will results in a nice bokeh which will cream the shaky background! Everyone is going to benefit from this but IS lenses even more since they already reduce the shake.

Suddenly, IS lenses became even sexier. Example footage available next week.
